Kingmakers In-Depth Gameplay Demo
tinyBuild presents the most in-depth gameplay showcase of Kingmakers to date, attempting to answer one of life's biggest questions: What would happen if you brought a modern arsenal to a medieval battlefield?
Travel back to 1403 and help Owain Glyndŵr grow the Welsh uprising into an empire. This in-depth gameplay demo showcases third-person combat, narrative, and core RTS mechanics, supporting both single-player and up to 4-player co-op.
Engage in large-scale third-person battles where you, along with firearms, vehicles, and air support brought from the future, become the key to turning the tide of war. Command massive armies, siege cities, build outposts, and defend your territory in RTS-style combat.
Kingmakers is coming to Steam Early Access. Players can now sign up on Steam for the upcoming playtest.
Read on below for the full recap of the event, including new demos and trailers for games like Deep Space Pawnshop and Shipwrecked, as well as newly announced console versions for Home Renovation Story, Primal Plan, and Grey Rain Steel Edge.
